Chapter 163 Pets
Jian Mo and his companions did not return until midnight.
When they returned to the tribe, it was already quiet, as if the entire tribe had fallen into a deep sleep.
The patrolling beastman did notice them, but did not come up to disturb them.
The two of them hurried home quietly, and when they got home, Jian Mo pushed Wu Jiong to go in.
At this time, Jian Mo heard a small sound: "Chirp."
Jian Mo turned around and saw that Jiujiu had run to the front without knowing when, tilting his head and looking at them, and making a soft sound from his mouth: "Chirp?"
Jian Mo felt a little embarrassed as if he had been caught: "What are you chirping about? It's so late and you're still not asleep, go to bed."
As he said that, Jian Mo stretched out his arm and pushed Jiujiu's soft body.
Jiujiu didn't leave, but lowered her head and grabbed his sleeve and pulled it to the side.
Jian Mo: "Huh?"
Wu Jiong: "Jiujiu, is she going to take us to find something?"
The two of them followed Jiujiu's force and walked to the side. After taking two steps, Jian Mo suddenly saw something on the windowsill.
They walked forward and saw that it was actually two rows of bowls, both of which were filled with food.
Jian Mo understood after a little thought: "These must be the long loaches caught by the kids, and the parents sent them to us."
The kids rarely had such a big harvest, especially in class, so the parents were proud and sent them to them after cooking.
Maybe the parent of a kid sent it first, and the other parents saw it and sent it too, so there were two rows of so many.
Jian Mo didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Who sent all this?"
Jiujiu couldn't answer this question, but just reminded them that there was food here: "Jiujiu."
Jian Mo turned around and touched Jiujiu: "Got it, we'll eat it tomorrow morning."
It was too late, they had already washed up, and the two of them didn't have the heart to eat.
Jiujiu called again, because she had completed the task, she went back to bed contentedly.
Wu Jiong and Jian Mo also hurriedly took all the food to the cupboard and went back to sleep.
The next day, Wu Jiong got up first, and Jian Mo rolled around in bed and stayed in bed all the time.
Now the weather is a little cold, and it is very comfortable to stay in bed.
If he wasn't afraid of not being able to sleep at night, he could still sleep in.
After rolling around for a while, Jian Mo finally found a set of long-sleeved clothes and put them on. He yawned and went downstairs slowly.
The sun was shining brightly outside. Ying Ao should have gone out to find food. Jiujiu was playing with the cubs in the tribe. Jian Mo's pointed beast ears moved and he could accurately hear the voices of the cubs and Jiujiu.
After Jian Mo washed up, he went to the kitchen to take out the rice in the pot and ate it slowly.
Before he finished eating, Zhou Fu came to their kitchen with a man: "Jian Mo, someone is looking for you."
Jian Mo swallowed the rice in his mouth and asked, "Who is it?"
Zhou Fu stepped aside to reveal the person behind him.
The person who came was a sub-beast man, holding a river velvet beast in his hands. Jian Mo didn't recognize which tribe this sub-beast man was from.
The Asian beastman stood at the door of the kitchen and said politely: "Doctor Jian Mo, I am Di Ying from the Dianxin tribe. I would like you to help me take a look at my river velvet beast."
Jian Mo put down his chopsticks: "What's wrong with the river velvet beast?"
Di Ying: "I don't know. It has been a little restless these two days and doesn't eat. I feel something is wrong."
Jian Mo: "Let me take a look."
Zhou Fu brought the person over and left. Di Ying waited outside the door.
Jian Mo quickly put away the food on the table, washed his hands and walked out. Together with Di Ying, he held the river velvet beast and walked to the yard, standing under the sun to look at it.
While checking the condition of the river velvet beast, Jian Mo asked casually: "Do you also raise river velvet beasts?"
Di Ying nodded: "I heard that you have a river velvet beast at home, so I brought it here to see you." After
hesitating for a while, Di Ying asked: "Doctor Jian Mo, can you cure river velvet beasts?"
Jian Mo: "I think I can, but I may not be able to cure it well. I don't have enough medicine on hand."
After the examination, Jian Mo picked up the chubby river velvet beast: "It seems to be holding its urine, is it Has it not urinated for two days? How are the other Velvet Beasts there? Is this one the only one showing symptoms?"
Di Ying: "I don't have any other Velvet Beasts, just this one."
Jian Mo was a little surprised: "Do you raise it as a pet?"
Di Ying had never heard of the concept of pets before, but he understood as soon as Jian Mo said it: "Yes, I have liked raising Velvet Beasts since I was a child. This is the third Velvet Beast I have raised, and it is also the cub of the previous Velvet Beast."
"It's fine." Jian Mo said after the examination, "It does have some urinary retention. I see it's a little red and swollen, it may be infected."
Jian Mo knew that people here couldn't understand many of his words, but he would feel better if he explained it clearly.
Di Ying asked nervously, "What should we do?"
Jian Mo: "I'll try to drain its urine, and then feed it anti-inflammatory and diuretic soup. Can you give me this river velvet beast?"
Di Ying breathed a sigh of relief: "Excuse me, how do I collect supplies?"
Jian Mo: "I'll tell you when I'm done. It will probably take one to two rolls of cloth. If you don't have cloth, you can use other supplies."
Several nearby tribes don't have metal mines, so people usually exchange things with cloth.
Now that the Jiu Nian tribe has more cotton cloth, cloth is more popular.
Jian Mo feels that it's pretty good. There is no need to promote metal currency like on Earth. Anyway, it's just a small-scale transaction. If one day cloth as a currency can't keep up with the times, then other currencies will naturally develop here.
When Di Ying heard that Jian Mo did not collect many supplies, she was relieved: "That's great, when I came, I was worried that you would not treat the river floss beast."
Jian Mo smiled: "No, I treated more beasts before. Anyway, I will do my best. If I can cure it, I will cure it. If I can't, there is nothing I can do."
Di Ying nodded: "Doctor Jian Mo, you are so nice."
Jian Mo took Di Ying and the others to the small clinic.
The furry river velvet beast looked sick and small in size. Jian Mo didn't need any help from anyone else. He just carried the river velvet beast in his arms and went in to treat it. The river velvet beast
looked a bit like a rabbit, and its structure was also a bit like a rabbit. Catheterization was not difficult for Jian Mo. Although the tools here were not complete, he still successfully helped the river velvet beast to urinate.
After taking care of it, he held the river velvet beast to Di Ying and said, "I helped it pee. Feel it. Is its stomach not hard now?"
Di Ying felt it and was surprised, "Really!"
Jian Mo said, "Now I'm going to the vegetable garden to pick some herbs to make a diuretic soup."
Di Ying said, "Do you want me to go with you?"
Jian Mo nodded, "Come with me. When we get back, you can find herbs to make a soup for it. They are all nearby herbs. It's not difficult."
Jian Mo's vegetable garden is planted with many herbs.
The range of use of anti-edema and diuretic herbs is relatively wide, and there are fresh herbs available in the vegetable garden now.
He picked two plants, took Di Ying back, and found an old pottery jar to teach Di Ying how to make the medicine.
After slowly boiling the medicine, Jian Mo let the herbal soup cool down, and took Di Ying to feed it to the river velvet beast: "Now let's see if it can pee on its own. If it can, it'll be fine. You just feed it a few more times of herbal soup and it will be fine."
Di Ying looked down at the river velvet beast: "It sounds simple. If I had known to do this before, my first river velvet beast would not have died so early."
Jian Mo patted his shoulder.
Di Ying smiled: "When I was a kid, I especially liked to play with that river sparrow. Maybe it's because my father died early, I'm a little timid, so I like small animals."
Jian Mo: "I understand. We have a lot of small animals there."
Di Ying: "Your place is really good. Many people don't understand why I don't eat the river sparrow and just keep it like this."
Jian Mo: "Look, we also have a flying wing beast."
When they first raised Jiujiu, they did it to ride Jiujiu. Later, when they raised Yingao, they completely had the mentality of raising a pet.
Although Yingao is used to finding food by himself and taking care of other family members, in essence, Yingao can be regarded as their pet, and of course, a family member.
After hearing what Jian Mo said, Di Ying smiled again: "I knew that you wouldn't think I was weird, Doctor Jian Mo, so I brought the river velvet beast to see you."
Jian Mo: "It's not weird, as long as it doesn't hurt others, everyone has the freedom to do what they like."
Di Ying nodded heavily: "Yeah!"
Di Ying's river velvet beast was not seriously ill, and it could urinate independently soon after drinking the herbal soup.
Jian Mo asked him to go back and feed the herbal soup for another two days, and pay more attention to this aspect.
Di Ying agreed, and said that he would come to pay the reward after preparing the cloth in two days.
After sending Di Ying away, Jian Mo went to the animal shed to see the river velvet beast he raised.
Their river velvet beast is plump, has a lot of fur, and has healthy defecation and urination, with no related troubles at all.
Jian Mo breathed a sigh of relief quietly.
Within two days, Di Ying brought cloth as a reward. In addition to the cloth, she also brought a doll made of river wool beast's fur and a basket of herbs.
Jian Mo looked at the felt doll: "You have such a deft hand!"
Di Ying was embarrassed: "It's nothing, people in our tribe often make ornaments for other tribes, and occasionally we make small dolls, but this is my first time making a river velvet beast, so it doesn't look very similar, as long as you like it."
Jian Mo: "It looks very similar! It's really well made, so similar and beautiful, I couldn't imagine before I saw it, that someone could make such a doll."
Di Ying was even more embarrassed: "Then you keep it, Doctor Jian Mo. You also keep this basket of herbs, which are the specialty herbs of our tribe, and they are said to be good for the Asian beastmen. Doctor Jian Mo, aren't you slower in development? See if they are useful?"
Jian Mo touched the cat ears on his head that he couldn't retract yet.
He had never taken this matter seriously, and never cared about it, but he didn't expect that everyone would worry about him.
Jian Mo: "Thank you, I'll try."
Di Ying: "The usage of this herb is the same as other herbs. It is also boiled into a medicinal soup and drunk twice a day. It is a tonic and is good for the body. It doesn't matter if you boil more or less."
He instructed very seriously, and Jian Mo also agreed very seriously: "Okay, I will definitely use this basket of herbs."
Di Ying: "Then you try it first. If it is useful, you can come to our tribe and I will take you out to dig."
Jian Mo took Di Ying's herbs and his dolls, but he was unwilling to take his cloth anymore.
Di Ying stuffed the cloth into Jian Mo's hands: "Gifts are gifts, medical expenses are medical expenses, Doctor Jian Mo, you must accept it. Thank you for helping me cure the river beast. It is just an animal to others, but to me, it is already my friend. Thank you very much."
Seeing this, Jian Mo ran back to the room and took down a shawl: "This is a shawl we exchanged from another tribe. The color and pattern are very special. I give it to you."
Di Ying didn't want to accept it at first, but he accepted it at Jian Mo's insistence.
He was a little embarrassed. After accepting it, he chatted with Jian Mo for a few words, then said goodbye to Jian Mo and said he was going back to the tribe.
Jian Mo noticed that he came alone and went back alone.
It seems that this is also a brave and independent beastman.
Jian Mo was not sure about the effect of the herbs sent by Di Ying, so he asked the tribe members before cooking the soup.
The tribe members said that the herbs from the Dianxin tribe were indeed good for the orcs, and that they were also available in the territory of the Riverside tribe. If he wanted them, they would bring him some when he went out to collect them .
Jian Mo was surprised that he didn't even know that there were such herbs in the tribe.
Ye Luo explained, "We saw that you didn't seem to want to become an orc, so we didn't mention it." Jian Mo touched the furry cat ears: "Really?" Ye Luo: "Yes, the tribe leader also told us not to mention it, saying not to put pressure on you." Jian Mo was touched. As an "alien", he didn't feel like an alien at all. Wu Jiong and the people in the tribe really took care of him silently behind his back. Jian Mo smiled: "I understand. I'll give it a try. Actually, I don't mind becoming an orc anymore." Ye Luo looked at him and nodded: "Okay."
